Answer:
A) a 23.5% decrease in materials
B) a 64% decrease in labor costs
C) a 29.1% decrease in overhead
Explanation:
White Tiger's multifactor productivity = $300 / $148 = 2.027
if we want to increase the multifactor productivity by 12%, it will = 2.27
since we will not change the sales price, we must determine the new total cost:
$300 / cost = 2.27
cost = $300 / 2.27 = $132.16 ≈ $132, which represents a $16 decrease
A) materials ⇒ $16/$68 = 23.5%
B) labor costs ⇒ $16/$25 = 64%
C) overhead ⇒ $16/$55 = 29.1%

If Chicago municipal bonds yield is 10% then Carter's treasurer make indifferent between the two.
Explanation:
Because Treasury Bond is exempt from tax income and both have same maturity, and they are equally risky and liquid; we then have the equation as below
Treasury bonds yield = Chicago municipal bonds yield after tax
⇔ 6% = Chicago municipal bonds yield * (1 - tax rate 40%)
⇔ 6% = Chicago municipal bonds yield * 0.6
⇒ Chicago municipal bonds yield = 6%/ 0.6 = 10%
